The seven Rainbow Fighters were frightened by the cat's scream. They searched and couldn't stop laughing when they saw Old Time Tea.
"What a weird cat, wearing a vest and a hat!"
"The owner is quite nice. He is keeping an old cat that can barely walk!"
"This cat is a piece of cake!"
"Your master is going to be beaten up by us! Are you coming to save him? No worries, I will beat you up as well."
Putting down his cell phone, Zhang Zian looked at them as if he was looking at seven corpses. He sighed and persuaded, "Let me tell you. You can still get out of here and save your lives. Otherwise, I am not sure what is going to happen."
The seven Rainbow Fighters didn't believe him and laughed.
"Are you stupid? We should run away? Why? Because of this half-dead old cat?"
"I don't even know how many of those cats I killed in my hometown!"
Zhang Zian nodded. "I warned you. You are going to regret this if you don't listen to me."
The golden-haired guy laughed. "You are about to lose an arm. Stop pretending to be fearless. My customer wanted an arm of yours, but I will take your leg as well just to make you shut up. Don't you ever fake again in front of me!"
Old Time Tea turned its head, looked at the hot tea, and said sadly, "What a pity to waste such a good pot of tea. Both benevolence and good tea should not be forgotten."
The seven Rainbow Fighters heard Old Time Tea's voice and didn't know what was wrong.
The red-haired guy elbowed the golden-haired guy. "Jin, how come this cat's voice is so scary?"
The golden hair guy pushed him away. "Bullsh*t! All cats scream like that."
Zhang Zian interrupted, "In fact… it was talking."
The seven Rainbow Fighters paused, then laughed. They laughed so hard that tears came out of their eyes.
"The cat was talking? Is he a retard?"
"I think he is so frightened that he's becoming crazy…
The golden-haired guy spoke as he wiped away his laughing tears, "Ha-ha… You meant it was talking? The cat with a vest? Tell me what it said. Did he want me to let it go?"
Zhang Zian said seriously, "It said, you should all fight at the same time. It didn't want to waste any more time."
"What?" The seven Rainbow Fighters were shocked.
The golden-haired guy pointed at Zhang Zian with his nunchucks. "Motherf*cker! How dare you put me down like that…"
Without allowing him to finish, Zhang Zian turned off the lights with a remote.
"Oh no! Power outage?"
"What the f*ck! Who turned off the light?!"
At the same time lights went out, Old Time Tea prowled the floor with its four paws, its body was as fast as lightning, and its two yellow eyes were flashing.
Old Time Tea was not as fast in speed, nor as agile and powerful as Fina. However, there was something special about it. It had the experience of thousands of years of practice and mastered the essence of skill.
This technique was known as martial arts by foreigners: the Chinese martial arts – the art of Kung Fu!
A cat's eyesight is not as good as humans during the day, but at night, it is another story...
In the dark of night, to fight a cat that knew martial arts was not fun!
A cat that knew martial arts was unstoppable!
Fina stared at Zhang Zian with its despising green eyes, as if to say, "Just fake your way to being a good person by turning off the lights!"
When human eyes go from a bright environment to a dark one, they will enter a semi-blind state, which causes blindness for a short period of time. One could ease the symptom by closing his eyes for a few seconds and then open his eyes again. However, the seven Rainbow Fighters didn't have the time to close their eyes!
Fortunately, they were not under complete darkness. The street lights and the lights from the stores on the other side of the road shone in. The unexpected darkness still created a chaotic moment to for the seven Rainbow Fighters.
"Ah!" The chaos started with screams.
"I told you to run away, but you didn't listen." Zhang Zian was hoping to push the excitement to another level, so he pulled out his phone and found a song named "The Ocean's Roar" from his music library. It was Old Time Tea's background music.
Among all the heroes in the world, only Old Time Tea deserved this song as its background music.
[The ocean roared]
[Tempestuous waves ran high]
As the seven Rainbow Fighters were still dealing with the temporary blindness, Old Time Tea had already rushed in front of them. Slightly bending its four legs, its paws stepped on the floor and jumped up. It was at a perfect timing to escape the golden-haired guy's nun chucks.
The first target was the green-haired guy.
With a baseball bat in his hands, he was still blinking, which meant that he wasn't completely used to the darkness yet.
Before he even realized it, Old Time Tea heavily punched him on the nose with the "sun punch" move.
Bang!
The green-haired guy screamed. His nose was broken. Blood mixed with tears, mucus and all sorts of other bodily fluids exploded out of his nose and mouth.
He fainted. He felt like he was up in the clouds and his feet could not touch the ground.
Immediately, Old Time Tea followed with another kick on his chest as it flew down from the air. This kick blew him out of the door and onto the ground. He could not get up anymore.
[Current situations are all tied to the highs and lows of the tide——]
Bouncing back from the kick on the chest, Old Time Tea changed directions in the air and flew directly towards the red-haired guy. It used the "three cat hits" move, and hit the red-haired guy's belly three consecutive times with its two front paws.
Fortunately, Old Time Tea didn't really want to kill him, so it took back the sharp nails. Otherwise, there would be six holes in his belly.
Every man dreams of a six-pack or eight-pack, but a six-hole belly may not sound attractive at all...
It wasn't that Old Time Tea had any mercy towards these devil men. In fact, it really wanted to kill someone to teach them a lesson. However, from the news it saw on TV, it knew that killing someone would put Zhang Zian in indefinite troubles.
Although Old Time Tea didn't use all its strength, the red-haired guy still could not take the hit. Old Time Tea hit him in acupuncture points, which put him in all kinds of pain.
His face distorted from pain. He bent down with both arms wrapped around his belly and could not speak a word.
Old Time Tea landed on the ground. With another move called "neck clutch", it heavily hit the red-haired guy's throat.
This time, the red-haired guy was thrown to the ground. He rolled out of the store and blacked out.
[The sky roars——]
[Tides keep coming——]
By now, the remaining five Rainbow Fighters had gotten used to the darkness and started to observe the situation.
Oh no! They were shocked!
In only a few seconds, two of the seven fighters were KO'd.
"Who is it?"
"Who?"
"Come out!"
They screamed as if their own voices would comfort themselves.
Zhang Zian's cellphone was bright and played the background music. They all looked in his direction.
"It had to be you, jerk…" The purple-haired guy pointed his baseball bat at Zhang Zian's vague shadow next to the cell phone.
Without finishing his words, a black shadow flew in front of him.
Immediately, the baseball bat pointing at Zhang Zian tilted down.
What was going on?
He was confused and saw a black shadow land on his bat.
Was it a bird?
But… birds don't have two bright yellow eyes like that…
Old Time Tea steadily landed on the bat, standing still.
It spun its body and used centrifugal force, throwing out a move called "flying kick"!
The purple-haired guy was going to say something, but then he felt a hairy cat leg heavily land on his face!
He was worse than the green-haired guy. The green-haired guy had only broken his nose, but the purple-haired guy's nose and front teeth were all broken. Blood was all over his face. He fell out of the store, struggled to get up, then stepped on an empty spot. He fell again and was knocked down.
[Only God knows who wins in the end——]
As Old Time Tea kicked the purple-haired guy's face, it turned directions in the air. The vest waved along with its movements. It looked like a fairy from another world.
The blue-haired guy hid behind the remaining fighters and was hoping to use their bodies to protect himself. He was the youngest among the seven and was also the most timid. He kept looking out of the store in the hope that someone would save him.
The last time he looked out was when the green-haired guy was kicked out of the store. Terrified, he turned around and felt two hairy paws grab his head.
Old Time Tea judged directions when it attacked the purple-haired guy and timed it perfectly to hit the blue-haired guy. As it flew in front of him, it grabbed his head with its two front paws and pressed his head down, hitting his face with its two knees.
These were the moves of "bridge hands" and "knee kick".
As its knees hit the blue-haired guy's face, Old Time Tea let its paws go.
The blue-haired guy's head quickly moved up from low to high and his whole body flew off the ground from such a heavy hit. A few teeth came out of his mouth. He rolled out of the store and fainted.
[The mountain laughed——]
[The rain roared——]
Old Time Tea once again bounced up and the orange-haired guy was the next target.
Besides Zhang Zian, there were only three guys left in the store. They were the orange-haired guy, the teal-haired guy and the golden-haired guy.
Zhang Zian stayed at the farther end of the store, which was quite dark. The other three men were standing by the door where it was brighter. Zhang Zian could roughly see Old Time Tea's movements.
He was scared as he watched, as if he could feel the pain Old Time Tea inflicted.
Old Time Tea only hit people's most sensitive and soft spots.
At first, he thought Old Time Tea was a soldier. Then, he thought it should be in the calvary. After seeing all these movements, he realized it should be in the air force. Its speed and movements were a lot better than any martial art performance he had ever seen.
He looked at Fina, who was also shocked. Its little tongue stuck out and wouldn't go back.
It really was true: "I subdue myself not because I am weak, but out of persistence towards the morality of society and leniency towards others."
Don't ever offend Old Time Tea. If it wanted to kill, it was able to.
Crazy!
Looking at Galaxy, it didn't seem surprised at Old Time Tea's work. Instead, it was stretching as if it was bored.
[How many stories could the waves tell——]
"Don't panic! Let's stay together, back to back!" The golden-haired guy screamed.
The golden-haired guy was the leader of the team. He remained calm, even in such a mysterious situation.
In fact, he was panicked himself and just pretended to be calm. He had cursed a thousand times at Qing Ren for putting them in a trap with dangerous pets. At the moment, he'd rather be dealing with a poisonous snake or a blue ring octopus!
The orange-haired guy and teal-haired guy gathered as soon as they heard the leader's instruction.
"Brother Jin…I want to go home…" The orange-haired guy cried as he ran.
In the next second, he couldn't cry anymore because a hairy tail wrapped around his neck. The tail was soft as it touched the skin but it turned as hard as iron immediately.
The orange-haired guy opened his eyes and mouth widely and tried to breathe. However, fresh air wouldn't come in. He threw away the weapon in his hand and tried to get rid of the tail.
Old Time Tea kicked him in the head, then loosened her tail. The guy fell and was kicked out of the store.
[The wind smiles ——]
[It makes me feel lonely——]
[But there are still great thoughts in my mind...——]
The teal-haired guy could not remember the brotherhood, loyalty nor his face any longer. He ran out, waved his arms and cried, "Help! Call the police! People are dying!"
Crying for help didn't help because they had blocked the phone signal themselves.
The golden-haired guy was also anxious, "What the f*ck?! Rubbish!"
If the two guys fought back together, they might be able to go for a while. However, they were a group of people who had always been a group of mobs. When everything went well, they stayed together. As soon as hardships were encountered, they fleed.
The teal-haired guy was about to leave the store. He was only one step away.
Old Time Tea flew down from the air. Its yellow eyes stared into his. The teal-haired guy was scared to death.
"Direct kick from the front!"
Old Time Tea kicked from low to high; its legs heavily landed on the teal-haired guy's chin.
The teal-haired guy immediate saw the ceiling. His eyes paused. His body rolled out of the store and he passed out.
A chair near the cashier's table was flipped. All four legs were facing up.
Old Time Tea landed on one of the chair's legs. Now, the golden-haired guy was all that was left.
[The people smile——]
[No more loneliness——]
[My great thoughts are still here——]
Seeing only one guy left, Zhang Zian became active.
"Hey! Come here! Come here! Come here!"
He made a movement in the air.
The golden-haired guy found all of his six followers beaten up. He decided not to continue to fight. He threw away his weapon and said, "I lost!"
Zhang Zian was disappointed, "Holy moly! I didn't even get to fight back…"
Fina was speechless.
So was Old Time Tea.
Galaxy jumped up happily, "Zian is great!"
Zhang Zian was deeply touched. Galaxy was so cute!
The golden-haired guy said, "Brother, I am only helping someone out. Could you let me go? Oh, yeah, your money…"
He started searching through his pockets, from left to right, in and out. In the end, he pulled out some wrinkly notes and put them on the floor and laughed. "I am sorry; I spent some. Don't worry, I will pay you back!"
Old Time Tea said, "It's important to capture the ringleader. Ask him who is behind this mission."
Zhang Zian stopped the music and asked, "Who sent you here? I will save your life if you tell me."
The golden-haired guy looked at him, then at Old Time Tea, "Well, we have rules…brother…"
Old Time Tea whipped her vest, and the golden-haired guy immediately changed. "Okay okay! It was Qing Ren!"
Zhang Zian was shocked. What a weird name!
He continued questioning, "Who is that?"
Golden-haired guy knew he couldn't keep the secret anymore, so he told everything, "Qing Ren from Qing Ren Lane… That's all I know. I don't know his real name."
Zhang Zian looked at Old Time Tea, then asked, "What does he do?"
The golden-haired guy begged, "I really don't know! Qing Ren has a Qing Ren consulting firm on Qing Ren Lane. He gets the business and we complete the missions."
What the f*ck?! Qing Ren owns Qing Ren consulting firm on Qing Ren Lane…
Zhang Zian pointed at his own nose. "So I am your business?"
The golden-haired guy coughed. "That's…"
Old Time Tea nodded, "That's good. He is of no more use to us."
Zhang Zian pointed at the door, "Leave!"
The golden-haired guy was amazed. He didn't expect to be able to leave in one piece, so he ran as soon as Zhang Zian told him to.
It was too bad that as he approached the door, Old Time Tea flew behind him and kicked him in his knees.
Bang!
The golden-haired guy kneeled down on the sidewalk and his knees turned blue.
Old Time Tea immediately followed with a neck chop on his neck.
Another one from the group!
All seven Rainbow Fighters were gone!
Old Time Tea slowly walked back into the store, sat back down on its electric blanket and took a sip of the tea.
"Great tea! Right at the best temperature!"
Golden-haired guy got kicked in the neck, but he was only dizzy and didn't pass out.
Zhang Zian saw a good chance that he couldn't miss. He walked up to the golden-haired guy and snapped him on the forehead.
The golden-haired guy passed out for real.
Zhang Zian waved his hand, "That was a hard forehead."
He stood up, glanced at the seven men and was shocked.
Amazing!
The seven Rainbow Fighters' bodies were on the ground outside his shop in the shape of two Chinese characters: "benevolence" and "righteousness"!
